5 Trends That Should Never Have Resurged

Who knew that the double denim craze would strike such a nerve? As a further follow-up to our rant about Double Denim and our strong belief that this trend did not deserve the resurrection many trendsetters and fashion journalists are predicting for this season, we give you five more trends that have seen a recent resurgence, though we wish had been left alone.

2. Elastic Waist Denim -

3. “Leggings” or “tights” for men –

For us, it’s not really a question of masculinity, or anything like that. These may have been all the rage for Robin Hood and Bill Shakespeare, but if you’re not going for a run and you’re not Kobe Bryant… you shouldn’t be wearing tights. Full stop.

If only for a moment Kobe reached his childhood dream… he had become Donatello. (sacbee)

4. “Fake” vintage -

there are some perks to vintage styles and clothing. It’s sustainable, and as we’ve pointed out, some of these looks never should have gone away. We’re all for nostalgia, but your “My Little Pony” tee that was made in China in 2010 isn’t cool. Especially if you weren’t alive during the initiall popularity of the character/show/film in question. If you want to rep your favorite cartoon try to find a shirt from the era… or go to Comicon and steal one.

Nice post sam. #2 got me thinking about about jeans in Spain, and how awful they are. Maybe you should just do a post on them (cargo pockets, straps hanging off, pleats, acid washes, crotch connected around the knees, you know what i´m talking about).
